We will be open from 10 AM to 3 PM. anreiser and amloessb will be here over summer. End-of-Semester Banquet: Saturday, April 30th at 7 PM at Joshu-Ya Sushi Action item: Email Sherry if you're interested in going but did NOT fill out the Google form. Cal Day: sherryg talks about the rules for the Brawl portion. People sign up for shifts. It's decided that we should only give out pages (10, 20, 30, 40, 50) and candy as prizes (i.e. we would not offer increased web space). Motion to allocate $40.12 to purchase Amazon toolset Seconded by Aaron Unanimously in favor. Action item: kfang is purchasing it Marketing event with boxes Plan to put a box fort on Sproul Printing Felix: mySQL improperly writing and only leaving two jobs There may be an issue with config because it's set to not logging history. Conversation about getting a new server and plans for consolidation: Mail will have a lot of network usage We just need to tackle mail and web Can we put them on separate? Dara: We wanted one machine separate that would still run. We need wiki to rebuild everything and mon to monitor. We still want to have one server. If the machine is in the lab someone could accidentally turn it off. Felix: Do we want to host wiki on Dreamhost? Dara: Could use it as backup Can automatically sync List of services: In the lab:Can keep biohazard/cataclysm, hurricane, experiments In the server room: logging - use a lot of CPU logins-flood, supernova, tsunami - can virtualize mail/spam/AV - use a lot of CPU wiki/mon - critical irc - easily virtualized, can go in the lab web - use a lot of CPU MySQL/Posgres - virtualized, should be with web server consoles (snowstorm, lightning) - axed DNS - critical LDAP/Kerberos - critical Kevin: Can we move death to pandemic? Dara: Makes logical sense, because if web is still FreeBSD, it will work well with Sparc if we wanted to virutalize everything possible, how many machines would we need? Ben: Goal is two racks Sanjay: Want to put these on separate network cards. We don’t want the network to be saturated. If "critical" is gone, would be very bad, so we want them up all the time Sanjay: we had divided up mysql and web because the vast majority of important data is on mysql, if web goes down, people may want to access mysql Kevin: What can mysql live with? Consoles? Sanjay: death, no to consoles Dara: either run it on death or something or run it on one of the VMs (about mySQL) Sanjay: would probably be with a web server Kevin: If you were to virtualize mysql, what else could you put with it? Aaron: we need famine, pollution, epidemic for sure Sanjay: We could buy loms? Hypervisor may not support lom card Ben: We want to get rid of consoles it seems, combine wiki/mon, mysql/posgres Ben proposes combining DNS, LDAP, Kerberos Aaron: can we put mysql and death separate Dara: mysql isn't intensive right now, it's user data, don't want it to fail Sanjay: Mail is tricky because it was supposed to be blackhole, we should put it on the new server, we should probably separate mail, spam, and AV on separate VMs Dara: Mail can especially at one point take a lot of CPU because spam and email increase a lot Are we keeping earthquake and pox? Sanjay: pox and coupdetat are nice We can move domain controller to the lab Sanjay: logging can be put on its own server Dara: pandemic seems like a waste for only DNS, Kerberos, LDAP Sanjay: it's unknown what could be put there FreeBSD is not supported on that machine Debian in theory could work problem with famine: was restarting death a lot Dara: pollution is backup, epidemic is disk array jaws is supposed to replace wildfire Felix: I thought we'd put wiki on jaws Dara: wildfire is being DOSed daily Felix: jaws could work for logging Kevin: why don't we put it on blizzard Sanjay: Decal server was donated for the purpose of decal Felix: Jordan said Nick's intention was to be used for the decal Ben: we'll only talk about blizzard if we get Nick's permission so use it Dara: coupdetat, I think disk controller is unreliable, so it would be terrible for logging we're running the service that is most reliable on the potentially buggiest system (pandemic) Sanjay: we should plan without pandemic Aaron: in the case that pandemic doesn't work Sanjay: we could put it on the new server Felix: could we put DNS, Kerberos, and LDAP on conquest? Sanjay: no So we need new server to take care of mail, I think 16 GB is enough Ben: So we're getting one new server and definitely one next semester [Break because there was just too much to write down] Sanjay: we just need to find a reliable server for logging Problem with wildfire may be misconfiguration or not powerful enough Aaron: if someone configures something so that only critical things are logged RAM and CPU are what matter for the new server for mail, etc. and login Sanjay: why don't we allocate 6K Dara: we can allocate 7K List of servers we have; the numbered ones are the ones we can work with: 1. famine pandemic - axed 2. new server 8. pox 3. monsoon wildfire - going to be on pox jaws - axed 4. epidemic 5. pollution 6. UPS coupdetat axed blizzard - not considered 7. netsplit Resulting distribution: Pox will take logging Monsoon will take DNS and LDAP/Kerberos Famine will take wiki/mon, mysQL, and death (web) New server will take mail, etc. login The lab will take biohazard/cataclysm, hurricane, experiments, and IRC Motion to allocate $8K for a new server. All funds leftover will go to SM/Gm discretionary. If more funds are needed, we are willing to use money from the Misc. fund. Seconded by Dara. All in favor: unanimous Action item: Send any quote you find for a server to staff@ocf. Action item: Contact Nick about what exactly he intended blizzard for. CalSec: we have 5 towers not being used because we got the new Dell computers for Linux We're thinking about giving 2 to CalSec Changing the conversation to what we want to do with all old towers The plan: 5th needs PSU, avalanche - Kenny is taking avalanche Aaron and Felix want a box Ben is taking a case from ragnarok Motion to allocate 2 old linux machines to CalSec, 3 for staff personal use. Seconded by Felix. Unanimously in favor. Action item: Please pick them up by next week or theyre going away. Dara: About the hoser rack. Some of those IPs are going to be changed. We want to use hostnames for the new Linux boxes alphabetically and add doom and eruption to maintain this pattern. Everyone seems okay with this. Sanjay suggests destruction instead of doom. Ben: riot will be the only public IP to access new staff rack Names: avalanche, bigbang, cyclone, destruction, eruption, fallingrocks Hosers will be behind riot Motion to adjourn by Sanjay. Seconded. Meeting ends at 9:39 PM.
